Although other Xbox gamepad drivers are now available, this package is still useful as an input remapper for programs that support only Xbox controllers.

This package now uses a new repo based on the original stable branch. I plan to merge some fixes/updates from other repos.

The dependency 'python2-dbus' needs to be updated to 'dbus-python'.

Upstream url has also changed to https://xboxdrv.gitlab.io/. The current listed one, http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv, has a link to the new upstream but does not auto redirect.

python2-dbus 1.2.16-3 has been removed from the [extra] repository.

I never got this to launch as system-wide systemd service (something about the pidfile not being there PIDFile=/var/run/xboxdrv.pid)

anyway:

  1. I don't like running aur stuff with root
  2. I only need the xboxdrv to run the deamon so Warframe does not crash after 5min (I do not own/use a real Xbox Controller)

so I made a user service file which does what I need: (launch with systemctl --user start xboxdrv or systemctl --user enable --now xboxdrv in case you want it to auto start)

$ cat .config/systemd/user/xboxdrv.service

Patch hopefully moving off of py2-based dependencies entirely https://github.com/zer0def/PKGBUILDs/commit/65bc7feb74d12cfd5d496268e6173645994e497a.patch

I had to modify the PKGBUILD adding this at the end of the prepare section:

patch SConstruct ../scons-py3.patch

xschlef commented on 2019-09-18 06:26 (UTC)

please update the PKGBUILD, so the scons patch is correctly applied
